Connecting to the COM1 Port

Se n d d o c u m e n t a t i o n c o m m e n t s t o m d s f e e d b a ck - d o c @ c i s c o . c o m .

To connect the console port to a computer terminal, follow these steps:

Step 1 Configure the terminal emulator program to match the following default port characteristics: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.

Step 2 Connect the supplied RJ-45 to DB-9 female adapter or RJ-45 to DP-25 female adapter (depending on your computer) to the computer serial port. We recommend using the adapter and cable provided with the switch.

Step 3 Connect the console cable (a rollover RJ-45 to RJ-45 cable) to the console port and to the RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter or the RJ-45 to DP-25 adapter (depending on your computer) at the computer serial port.

Note For configuration instructions, see the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide or the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager Configuration Guide.

Connecting to the COM1 Port

Note The COM1 port is not supported for connection to a console.

The COM1 port (labeled “COM1”) is an RS-232 port with a DB-9 interface (see Figure B-2). You can use it to connect to an external serial communication device such as a modem. For information about how to turn off hardware flow control, see the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide.

Note Switches running Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.2(1a) or later NX-OS Release 4.1(1b) support the connection of a COM1 port to a modem.
